This is some really cool intelligent RGB lighting!

14mm Brown flexible PCB inside of a 17mm silicone sleeve - IP67 waterproof
SMD5050 RGB LEDs - extremely bright
32 RGB LEDs per meter
One LPD8806 IC for every 2 LEDs (each LED _IS_ individually addressable)
Each LED is individually addressable, with 7 bits of red, green, and blue data shifted in for 21 bit color
5V operation, up to almost 2A/meter (all 32 LEDs full RGB or white)
Strips up to 5m long, with the option to daisy chain them (power should be injected again every 5m or so). I've run a 5M roll off of a modified PC power supply with no glitches or issues.
Strips can be cut every 2 LEDs (1 IC, 2 LEDs per segment)
LPD8806 Datasheet available at http://www.insomnialighting.com/datasheets/LPD8806.pdf

These strips use a 14mm wide PCB which handles more current than the 12mm strips (the 5v and GND rails are wider). These are the best quality LPD8806 strips we can source! (This is the exact same LPD8806 product found elsewhere for $35/meter!)

For those of you unfamiliar with the LPD8806 IC, this chip has free running PWM, so you can send data to the LEDs on this strip and have your micro go off and do something else.
Technical details and example code (Arduino, CCS C for PIC microcontrollers) can be found at http://www.insomnialighting.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=page_2.

These LED strips come on 5M rolls, IP67 sealed in a silicone tube and glued on either end. We sell by the meter, however please note that the strips will be cut from a 5M roll and will lose this end seal. We sell the 14mm caps to re-seal these in our store, if necessary.
